Just seen in todays paper here they are drawn together in some comp in china together , anybody watching ? if so is there any obvious tension ...

On a side note in the same article GMac is saying he had no part in Rory changing mamagement companies ..

yeah right! officially maybe so he can 'officially say that, but theres no way they didnt discuss moving over.
why is Gmac even saying this? the man profeth too much...........and he has an annoying grin:rolleyes:
 
As much as I like Rory, he would have to be a bit of a push over to make such drastic changes on a friends say so.

Personally, I think he wants a piece of the media vacum created by Tigers drop in form and maybe he thinks he can get it by moving to a "better" managment company.

As was said in a previous thread. Rumors are bound he's signing for Nike (Can't see it mysef) so maybe a little hype is good for his image.... and is wallet.
 
I reckon rorys switch is down to his move to the PGA tour with horizon having gmac there already, whereas chubby seems to not play ball with commissioner finchem and this obviously doesn't go down well.
Think there maybe a bit of tension at team ISMdarrren Clarke tweeted thi morning about no price on loyalty when asked if he would leave?
 
Can't see the endorsements/equipment changing as he has agreements (only recently signed for most of them) in place for many years yet.
 
With some of the things he says (Rory) I think hes just letting people know that hes is own man,and being only
22 years old he does'nt care who he upsets,would hate to see him sign with Nike though..
 
This is a non-story if you ask me. Players switch management and sponsors all the time. I have a lot of time for Chubby - he has done very well with his stable, but he isn't running a cult.
